The scripting is only for the editor — it allows to edit bare-bones HTML and see elaborate results immediately. That would also be the format of Editors' Drafts stored in http://dev.w3.org/ but that's okay as such drafts are only intended for well-informed audiences. But when comes the time to make a formal publication to /TR/ one would save the generated DOM to HTML (hit Alt+S while reading the documentation or the test spec, you'll see options to generate that appear). Right now it requires one step too many but as soon as we have the File System API available in browsers it can be even easier :) -- Robin Berjon robineko — setting new standards http://robineko.com/
